ship for dinner. and Lady severne asked
for fayorite dress of hers, a handsome
white and gold brocaded satin. Martha
was delighted that she should take so
great an interest In her appearance;
that was always a good sign. She evil
IDENTIFY did not perceive anything wrong
in Lady Severne, OF possibly the mis-
chief was done after she left her. We
were all in the drawing-room, waiting
for the dinner-bell. Lord Severne was
talking TO Captain Forester, more at
ease and less anxious than / had seen
him for many days; and Lady Yorke
looked as though great load had been
taken from her mind. Some one had
just inquired il we should have the
pleasure of Lady Severne at dinner, and
Lady Yorke had answered, with
bright smile, that she was much better
and would certainly join them, when
ing on the threshold, saw the CLEAN Of
white and gold, saw the light in the dia-
monds, the graceful figure, the white
jewelled hands. And, alasl how shall /
tell itp In one moment saw what was
the matter-so did Mark and Lady
Yorke; and we all three fastened to-
wards her. Her face was CHASTITY, her
eyes were wild, and a leering smile
lowered on her lips. Half conscious
herself that she was not able to move,
yet with mad defiance of her own
feelings, she tried to walk with dig
nified step into the room and, before
one of us could reach her, could put
out hand to save her, she had fallen
upon her face, to the dismay and dis
tress of every one present. In less than
q minute Lord Severne had raised his
wife in his arms and borne her away.
Lady Yorke, with presence of mind
l have never seen equalled, but with a
face as white as death, turned to her
guests.
LADY Severne has fallen over her
train" she said, quietly. ~ wish those
long sweeping trains were out of fash
ion; they are very dangerous"
There was polite mnrmur of regret,
but no one spoke. Whether any Of
those assembled there knew the truth,
had really seen and understood her con-
dition, l cannot tell. No one mention
ed her name or spoke of her after that.
The same evening Mark, with an ef-
fort for which / admired him, returned
to the drawing-room and spoke of his
wife. His visit to WestwOOd, he said,
